Unibet has extended its live casino dealer relationship with live dealer technology and games provider Evolution Gaming in a deal for the US market.
The Kindred Group subsidiary has an existing relationship with Evolution through which it operates Evolution’s generic Live Casino tables in Europe, a dedicated environment at Evolution’s Riga studios and a selection of native speaking tables at Evolution’s Malta studios.
Unibet will use Evolution’s new US studio, which opened in Atlantic City in mid-August, to deliver Live Casino services to players in New Jersey under the extended agreement.
Cristiano Blanco, head of gaming at Kindred Group, said: “The Unibet brand has a strong footprint in Europe where it has enjoyed exciting growth in Live Casino, thanks in large part to our relationship with Evolution. Now that Evolution has launched its US studio, we look forward very much to establishing and growing the Unibet brand in New Jersey and, in due course, in other US states too.”
James Stern, director of business development and land-based sales at Evolution, said: “We have already started to plan the expansion of the US studio following the early success we have witnessed since launch.”
